I think everyone knows that she gets killed in the shower, but the details of that encounter aren't as widely known.

At least, that was my experience when I saw it in 1995 at age 16.

It's not just the music, but the way the mirror scene shifts the camera left/right in a parallel to the first train scene with David Dunn in Unbreakable.

I first saw Psycho I think in the early 90's. I was also in my teens. At the time, I didn't know the "connection" between Norman and Mother. I was all but certain Norman wasn't right in the head(the movie is called PSYCHO after all), but at least the ending came as a bit of a surprise. The shower scene was something I knew well in advance though and I can't recall when I first learned about it. It just seems like something I was always aware of.

I've loved most of his movies. Barring "The Happening" Airbender and After Earth.
Yes I loved The Village and Lady in the Water. So naturally this news excites me. Will keep my hopes in check. But I don't want this to be a commercial superhero flick at all. I want him to do what he does best. That is write from his heart. His passion is so evident when you watch the detail he puts into his films. So excited about Glass.

Awesome news.

Now I gotta go see Split as I never saw it.
But "Unbreakable" is one of my favorite movies. Absolutely love it.

Another who hasn't seen Split but thinks Unbreakable is a masterpiece.

M Night is one creepy little dude, with an interesting/bizarre kind of vision when it come's to his movie's. For the most part his stuff has been successful, and I'm sure that this new installment will do well also. I will wait until this one come's out on Blu-ray, but from the review's that I have read, I feel that I will enjoy this one.

[MattJ1991]

I love Unbreakable and Split was a wonderful surprise. The ending reveal was one of the best theater moments ever for me. January 2019 feels so far away.

Trilogy box set? Please?

[Darkstream]

Seems that a lot of opinions of Split are... uh.... split.

Might be unlikely because Unbreakable is with Disney and Split & Glass are with Universal.

I've still never seen Unbreakable...

When I hear the music at the end of Split it's like I lost time and consciousness for a while, then I see Dunn. Clever. I mean, I realized Kevin has become a supervillain by then, but never thought about any connection to Unbreakable. When I watch it again it all make sense. Never announcing it as a sequel was a bold move.

Disney owns the characters and music in Unbreakable, I guess Universal has to make legal arrangements to use them.

[ConDers]

Wow I had no clue split was in the same universe as unbreakable. Now I have to see it and can't wait for this to come out!

The little theory I posted in the Split thread.

[Show spoiler]Kevin = Casey

How is possible when she's one of the kidnapped girls? Only two of the girls were kidnapped, by her. You see her as a separate individual in one frame, but what we see is what she imagined. From the beginning I thought about how this girl is weird, and how they said she's weird at school. Also Kevin's other personalities keep saying about he's been planning to kidnap the two girls, only two. Yes maybe because she was there he has to take her too, but maybe that's what the director wants us to think. Casey is one of the personalities, and Kevin's real physical look. Everyone who saw her as Kevin is dead.

I have to see it again to find flaws in my theory, but this is fun.

I love Unbreakable & Split so I can't wait for this one.

[GLaDOS]

I'm no Shyamalan fan, but Unbreakable and Split were f*cking great. Hearing this news makes me moist.
